Transformation of Chebyshev–bernstein Polynomial Basis

In paper [4], transformation matrices mapping the Legendre and Bernstein forms of a polynomial of degree n into each other are derived and examined. In this paper, we derive a matrix of transformation of Chebyshev polynomials of the first kind into Bernstein polynomials and vice versa. We also study the stability of these linear maps and show that the Chebyshev–Bernstein basis conversion is remarkably well-conditioned, allowing one to combine the superior least-squares performance of Chebyshev polynomials with the geometrical insight of the Bernstein form. We also compare it to other basis transformations such as Bernstein-Hermite, power-Hermite, and Bernstein–Legendre basis transformations. 2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 41A10, 65G99, 65D17.
